or in such other manner as may be specified by the Agent. At each Closing (as defined below), the aggregate Subscription Price for all Purchased Shares subject to such Closing will be released to the Corporation by Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP on instructions from the Agent. The deliveries required pursuant to this Section 3 are hereinafter referred to as the “Purchaser’s Closing Deliveries.”
 
4.    Closing and Delivery of Share Certificates
 
Delivery and sale of the Purchased Shares will be completed (the “Closing”) at the offices of the Corporation (or such other place or places as the Corporation and the Agent may agree) at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Standard Time) (the “Closing Time”) on such date or dates as the Corporation and the Agent may agree (the “Closing Date”). The Final Closing (as defined below) is expected to occur on or about June 30, 2007. As used herein, “Final Closing” means the date on which the full amount of the Offering is sold or the earlier termination of the Offering period as determined by the Corporation.
 
Certificate(s) representing the Purchased Shares will be delivered at Closing against delivery by the Purchaser of the requisite funds by wire transfer. To avoid the need to deliver legended Share certificate(s) prior to effectiveness of the planned resale registration contemplated by the Investor Rights Agreement, the Purchaser agrees that delivery of the Share certificate(s) may be made to counsel for the Agent, who shall hold such Share certificate(s) on behalf of the Purchaser and who shall, upon effectiveness of the registration of the resale of the Shares, deliver the Share certificate(s) without legend in accordance with the delivery instructions of the Purchaser set forth on the signature page hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser may at any time request physical delivery of a certificate for Purchased Shares by notice in writing to the Agent, provided that any such certificate delivered prior to effectiveness of the resale registration statement will bear a restrictive legend as set out in Section 5(g) below. Moreover, if the resale registration statement is not declared

effective within 90 days of the date of the Final Closing (or 120 days if reviewed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)), counsel for the Agent shall, at the Agent’s option and in accordance with the Agent’s written instructions, cause the Share certificate(s) in its possession and registered in the Purchaser’s name to be endorsed with such restrictive legend and delivered to the Purchaser. The Purchaser, on its own behalf or on behalf of others for whom it is contracting hereunder, agrees and acknowledges that counsel for the Agent shall not be liable for any error in judgment or for any act done or step taken or omitted by it in good faith or for any mistake, in fact or law, or for anything which it may do or refrain from doing with the performance of any obligations in this Section 4, except arising out of its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Purchaser, on its own behalf or on behalf of others for whom it is contracting hereunder, hereby appoints the Agent, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney and agent with the full power and authority in its place and stead to swear, execute, file and record any document necessary to give effect to the delivery and sale of the Purchased Shares, to terminate this subscription on its behalf in the event that any condition precedent to the Offering has not been satisfied, to execute a receipt for the Purchased Shares and all other documentation, and to modify or waive any conditions or grant any waivers on its behalf in connection with this Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Certificates evidencing the Purchased Shares shall not be required to contain the foregoing legend (i) while the registration statement contemplated by the Investor Rights Agreement is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such shares pursuant to Rule 144 if the Purchaser provides the Corporation with a legal opinion (and the documents upon which the legal opinion is based) reasonably acceptable to the Corporation to the effect that the shares can be sold under Rule 144, (iii) if and for so long as the Purchased Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k), (iv) if the holder provides the Corporation with a legal opinion (and the documents upon which the legal opinion is based) reasonably acceptable to the Corporation to the effect that the legend is

-8-

 

(d)
if the Purchaser is a corporation, the Purchaser is a valid and subsisting corporation, has the necessary corporate capacity and authority to execute and deliver this Subscription Agreement and to observe and perform its covenants and obligations hereunder and has taken all necessary corporate action in respect thereof or, if the Purchaser is a partnership, syndicate or other form of unincorporated organization, the Purchaser has the necessary legal capacity and authority to execute and deliver this Subscription Agreement and to observe and perform its covenants and obligations hereunder and has obtained all necessary approval in respect thereof and, in either case, upon execution by the Corporation, this Subscription Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding contract of the Purchaser enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its respective terms;

The Purchaser further agrees that by accepting the Purchased Shares, the Purchaser shall be representing and warranting that the foregoing representations and warranties are true as at the Closing Time with the same force and effect as if they had been made by the Purchaser at the Closing Time and that they shall survive the purchase by the Purchaser of the Purchased Shares and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any subsequent disposition by it of any Purchased Shares.

The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that a director of the Corporation also serves as a director and officer of the Agent.
 
10.    Costs
 
The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that all costs and expenses incurred by the Purchaser (including any fees and disbursements of any counsel retained by the Purchaser) relating to the purchase of the Purchased Shares shall be borne by the Purchaser.
 
11.    Appointment of Agent
 
 
The Purchaser, on its own behalf and (if applicable) on behalf of others for whom the Purchaser is contracting hereunder, hereby:

irrevocably authorizes the Agent to negotiate and settle the form of any agreement to be entered into in connection with this Subscription Agreement and to waive on its own behalf and on behalf of the purchasers of Shares, in whole or in part, or extend the time for compliance with, any of the closing conditions in such manner and on such terms and conditions as the Agent may determine, acting reasonably, without in any way affecting materially the Purchaser’s obligations or the obligations of such others hereunder; and
 
(b)
acknowledges and agrees that the Agent and the Corporation may vary, amend, alter or waive, in whole or in part, one or more of the conditions set forth in the Agency Agreement in such manner and on such terms and conditions as they may determine, acting reasonably, without in any way affecting materially the Purchaser’s obligations or the obligations of such others hereunder.
